本文汇集了两个案例研究，探讨如何非变性人，“性别正常”，与变性人互动，突出做性别和heteronormativity之间的联系。通过对比从非性到性到性的公共和私人互动，作者展示了性别和性是如何密不可分地联系在一起的。作者表明，在一个性别类别的成员资格的标准是显着不同的社会与（异性恋）性环境。虽然性别被认为反映了所有社会互动中的生物性别，但在性和性化的情况下，以代表一个人生殖器形状的方式进行性别的重要性得到了提高。在性关系和性化关系中，对未能达到性别标准的反应本身就是性别化的;男人和女人选择不同的目标，并利用性别化的策略来完成对所谓自然性别界限的监管，并修复对异性恋的破坏。
This article brings together two case studies that examine how nontransgender people, “gender normals,” interact with transgender people to highlight the connections between doing gender and heteronormativity. By contrasting public and private interactions that range from nonsexual to sexualized to sexual, the authors show how gender and sexuality are inextricably tied together. The authors demonstrate that the criteria for membership in a gender category are significantly different in social versus (hetero)sexual circumstances. While gender is presumed to reflect biological sex in all social interactions, the importance of doing gender in a way that represents the shape of one's genitals is heightened in sexual and sexualized situations. Responses to perceived failures to fulfill gender criteria in sexual and sexualized relationships are themselves gendered; men and women select different targets for and utilize gendered tactics to accomplish the policing of supposedly natural gender boundaries and to repair breaches to heteronormativity.
